Answer:

A magnets always have two poles (north and south), the unmagnetized rod can be identified using properties of the poles of a magnet.

Explanation:

The law of magnetism states that like poles repel, while unlike poles attract. The simple experiment here is to use two rods at a time, keeping one of the poles of the first rod constant, while changing the poles of the other rod.

When the two rods are magnets, attraction and repulsion would be observed between the rods. But for the case of unmagnetized rod and one of the magnetised rod, only attraction is observed between the poles.

A car is traveling in a race. The car went from the initial velocity of 35 m/s to the final velocity of 65 m/s in 5 seconds. Wha
vekshin1

Acceleration = (change in speed) / (time for the change)

Change in speed = (speed after the change) - (speed before the change)

Change in speed = (65 m/s) - (35 m/s)  =  30 m/s

Acceleration = (30 m/s) / (5 s)

<em>Acceleration = 6 m/s²</em>

Answer:

B. the air pressure decreases

Explanation:

As elevation increases, there is less overlying atmospheric pressure mass, so that atmospheric pressure decreases with increasing elevaton.

arsen [322]
No. She would be doing the same amount of work that way. Work is defined to be equal to the force multiplied by the distance. Carrying two bags at a time would cause her to exert twice the effort, so the total amount of work done in the end would still be the same.

(a) As you ride on a Ferris wheel, your apparent weight is different at the top and at the bottom. Explain. (b) Calculate your a
otez555 [7]

Answer:

a. The component of the net force which make up the apparent weight are added to each other at the bottom and subtracted (the centripetal force from the weight) at the top)

b. Apparent weight at the top is approximately 519.06 N

Apparent weight at the bottom is approximately 558.94 N

Explanation:

a. The apparent weight at the top is different from the apparent weight at the bottom of a moving Ferris wheel because of the opposite direction in which the centripetal force acts at the top and the bottom, which are upwards and downwards respectively, while the weight acts downwards constantly

b. The given parameters are

The radius of the Ferris wheel, r = 7.2 m

The period for one complete revolution, t = 28 seconds

The angle covered in one revolution, θ = 2·π radian

The mass of the person riding on the Ferris wheel, the passenger  = 55 kg

Therefore, we have;

The angular speed, ω = Δθ/Δt = 2·π/(28)

From which we have;

Centripetal force, F_c = m × ω² × r

Substituting the known values, we have F_c = 55 kg × (2·π/(28 s))² × 7.2 m ≈ 19.94 N

The centripetal force, F_c = 19.94 N always acting outward from the center

Weight = Mass × Acceleration due to gravity

The weight of the passenger = 55 kg × 9.8 m/s² = 539 N

The weight of the passenger = 539 N always acting downwards

At the top of the Ferris wheel the the centripetal force is acting upwards and the weight is acting downwards

Therefore;

The net force, which is the apparent weight of the passenger at the top F_{NET_{Top}} = 539 N - 19.94 N ≈ 519.06 N

Apparent weight at the top ≈ 519.06 N

At the bottom of the Ferris wheel the weight is acting downwards and the centripetal force is also acting downwards

Therefore;

The net force at the bottom, which is the apparent weight of the passenger at the bottom F_{NET_{bottom}} = 539 N + 19.94 N ≈ 558.94 N

Apparent weight at the bottom ≈ 558.94 N.

11 kg is a familiar weight for a bag of flour. You are baking cookies for a Save The Rain Forest fund drive. It takes 500 g of f
arlik [135]

Answer: 22 batches.

Explanation:

Given that 11 kg is a familiar weight for a bag of flour. Also, it is given that It takes 500 g of flour to make one batch of cookies.

How many batches of cookies can you make with one bag of flour

Let's first convert 11 kg into grams (g) by multiplying it by 1000

11 × 1000 = 11000 g

Divide 11000 by 500

11000/500 = 22

Therefore, 22 batches of cookies can be made with one bag of flour.
